FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a shelf bracket, and, more particularly, to a utility corner shelf bracket.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The need for installing shelves at intersections of structure walls or ends of furniture, which form corners, has existed for many generations. Many solutions are based on placing a shelf on a bracket, which has been fixed to the corner walls at the desired height.

A corner bracket is described in U.S. Pat. No. 1,325,143 (1919) of Conterio, which is incorporated by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.

A shelf assembly and a support bracket are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,555,082 (1985) of Sack, et al. which is incorporated by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein. This solution is supposed to overcome the limitations of previous solutions, including that of Conterio. These limitations also include being assembled of many separate components, whose assembly is expensive and time consuming, while also being aesthetically unpleasant to the sight.

However, even the solution of Sack, et al. has its faults, particularly the need for mounting means, such as nails or screws that are partially inserted into a pair of walls that form a corner before the installment of the shelf assembly.

None of the prior art devices enable easy installment and removal, which are done quickly and without requiring tools, of a utility corner shelf bracket, upon which a corner shelf is mounted.

There is therefore a need for a utility corner shelf bracket which enables easy installation and removal, which are done quickly and without requiring tools, and upon which a shelf can be mounted, and it would be advantageous if additional accessories could be engaged, for the purpose of bearing loads.

Referring now to the drawings, FIG. 1 is an isometric schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary first embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 a, (first embodiment), according to the present invention.

The utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment) includes a first bow 11 and a second bow 12, connected to each other at their ends so as to enable angular movement between their ends around two hinges 14, one at each end, which form a closed shape from top view. Each hinge 14 is assembled within a socket 15, which can be an integral part of a first socket plate 16, which is engaged with an additional socket, which can be an integral part of a second socket plate 17, while the two first socket plates 16 are disposed near both ends of the first bow 11, and the two second socket plates 17 are disposed near both ends of the second bow 12.

In another possible embodiment, the sockets are integral parts of the first bow 11 and the second bow 12. The first bow 11 and second bow 12 have arced shapes, while the center point of the first bow 11 is origin of a Cartesian axis system, whose axes X, Y, and Z, are in directions shown in the present illustration: the X axis is in the direction of the center point of the second bow 12, the Y axis is to the left, in view from the origin, on a plane parallel to that on which the first bow 11 and second bow 12 are placed so that after assembly to a corner wall (101), assuming that its walls are vertical, it is essentially a horizontal plane, and the Z axis in this state is vertically downwards. The central part of first bow 11 has a first bow arc 11 a and two first bow wings 11 b, each of which progresses to one of either end of first bow arc 11 a, and whose shape is planar after assembly to the corner wall (101), (if the wall is planar), as will be shown in FIG. 2. The external side of each first bow wing lib has several nails 18, which are designated for insertion into the corner wall (101) after assembly, in order to prevent movement between the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), and the corner wall (101). In order to facilitate the prevention of movement, the external surface of each first bow wing lib can have a high friction coefficient, which can be achieved either by selection of the material and the processing of the surface, or by adding an external layer of a suitable material, such as a layer of rubber.

The first bow 11 and second bow 12 can be composed of various materials, such as aluminum, and have a good ability for bending on the XY plane, suitable for manual forces applied on a pulling assembly (20), while they are durable to loads in the direction of the Z axis which may be applied to the corner shelf 102 while it is mounted upon the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment).

Inwards from the first bow 11 and second bow, is a third bow 13 a, (of the first embodiment), whose ends rest upon two supports 19, each of which is disposed on the internal side of the first bow 11 for the purpose of transmitting forces from the first bow 11 and second bow 12, which are generated at a certain point which will be described later on, by the pulling assembly 20. Note that this form of force transmission from the third bow 13 a, (of the first embodiment), to the first bow 11, is one viable option of several, and does not limit the present invention in any way.

The pulling assembly (20), one possible structure of which, and whose method of action, will be specified later on, includes a turnbuckle sleeve 21 a, with left and right hand internal threads on both ends, which can be rotated to the left or to the right, for purposes that will be specified later on, around axis X, with the rotation leftward in view from the origin, around axis X, marked in the present illustration with arrow ‘B’.

FIG. 2 is a top schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary first embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), installed on a corner wall 101, according to the present invention.

In this state, the angle ‘A’ formed between both of the first bow wings lib, equals the angle formed between both walls comprising the corner wall 101, and the nails 18 are inserted in the walls. In this state, a corner shelf 102 can be placed upon the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment). The angle ‘A’ is, in most cases, of 90 degrees, however the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), can also be installed in other values of this angle.

The pulling assembly 20, which can apply pulling force, is disposed along the X axis, between the second bow 12, and the third bow 13 a (of the first embodiment), which applies forces F₃ on the first bow wings lib. This pulling also causes the second bow 12 to apply forces F₄ on the first bow wings lib. These force components fasten the first bow wings lib towards the two walls of the corner wall 101.

The pulling assembly 20, shown in the illustrations of the present patent application, includes two rods, a first screwing rod 22 a, with external threads in a first direction, and a second screwing rod 23 a, with external threads in a second direction.

The two rods are engaged with turnbuckle sleeve 21 a, namely are screwed into turnbuckle sleeve 21 a, which has left and right hand internal threads at both of its ends and ability to rotate left and right around the X axis, as shown by arrow ‘B’.

The turnbuckle sleeve 21 a can be shaped as a cylinder with a closed wall or partial wall, as shown in the illustrations of the present application.

The first screwing rod 22 a is connected to a second bow 12, and the second screwing rod 23 a is connected to a third bow 13 a (of the first embodiment), through a hole in its center, and its location, according to one embodiment, can be adjusted by means of a first nut 24, and a second nut 25. In this manner, the operation of the pulling assembly 20, which is done by means of rotation of the turnbuckle sleeve 21 a, in one direction, changing its length L, results in the first_rod 22 a and the second screwing rod 23 a moving towards one another, creating the pulling force described above, while rotation in the other direction causes the rods to move away from one another, and the pulling force is replaced by a pushing force which reverses the directions of forces F₃ and F₄, thus decreasing the angle ‘A’ between the two first bow wings lib and therefore causing their moving away and the removal of the nails 18 from the walls.

FIG. 3 is an isometric schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary first embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), at a stage prior to installation, according to the present invention.

At this stage, the installing person, who can be without any special expertise, uses both hands to tension the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), along the X axis, ensuring that the angle ‘A’ is small enough to bring close to the corner wall 101.

FIG. 4 is a top schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary first embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), installed at a corner wall 101, at a stage prior to installation, according to the present invention.

Because angle ‘A’ is sufficiently small, the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), can be brought close to the corner wall 101, as shown in the present illustration, for the purpose of installation.

FIG. 5 is an isometric schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary first embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), and a corner shelf 102, at a stage prior to placing the shelf 102 on the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a, (first embodiment), according to the present invention.

FIG. 6 is a right side schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary first embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), and a corner shelf 102, at a stage following placing the corner shelf 102 upon the utility corner shelf, according to the present invention.

The invention according to the present patent application is not limited to the installation of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 a (first embodiment), in corners of vertical walls, and it can also be installed, for example, in a corner formed between a wall and a ceiling.

A method for installing a utility corner shelf bracket (100 a) (first embodiment), and a corner shelf (102) at a corner wall includes the stages of:

-   -   providing a utility corner shelf bracket (100 a) (first         embodiment)), and a shelf (102);     -   tensioning the utility corner shelf bracket (100 a) (first         embodiment);     -   turning the turnbuckle sleeve (21 a), until the nails (18) are         sufficiently inserted into the walls; and     -   placing the corner shelf (102) upon the utility corner shelf         bracket.

The method for removing a utility corner shelf bracket (100 a) (first embodiment), and a corner shelf (102) from a corner wall includes the stages of:

-   -   removing the corner shelf (102) from the utility corner shelf         bracket (100 a) (first embodiment);     -   turning the turnbuckle sleeve, until reaching extraction of the         nails (18) from the walls; and     -   removing the utility corner shelf bracket (100 a) (first         embodiment) from the corner wall.

The following illustrations and the accompanying description specifies additional embodiments.

Many of the structural features and qualities typical of the first embodiment also apply to these additional embodiments. Various combinations of structural elements and features mentioned in the present patent application can serve for additional embodiments of the utility corner shelf bracket according to the present invention.

FIG. 7 a is a top schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary second embodiment, first variant of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 c, according to the present invention.

The pulling assembly 20 of the present illustration includes a central rod 27 (of second), a turnbuckle sleeve 21 c (of second embodiments), and a second screwing rod 23 c (of second embodiments), whose end is connected to a T rod 31, both of whose ends have shafts which are connected to two side rods 28, as shown in the illustration.

The central part of first bow 11 has a first bow arc 11 a and two first bow wings 11 b, each of which progresses to one of either end of first bow arc 11 a, and whose shape is planar after assembly to a corner wall (101) (if the wall is planar).

The internal wall of the first bow 11 has at least one support rod 32, which prevents overextension, and thus protects the user's fingers. Each first bow wing lib on the internal wall is connected to a strengthening rib 30, which provides additional resistance to bending and facilitates mounting up to a wall.

FIG. 8 a is a top schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, first variant, of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, according to the present invention.

The utility corner shelf bracket 100 f is made, possibly not including the nails 18, as a one integral piece of an elastic material.

The third embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f does not have any pulling assembly and the forces attaching it to the walls come from the elasticity of the first bow 11, having a first bow arc 11 a, and the second bow 12, which are, for all practical purposes, springs.

Compression prior to mounting in a wall corner is done by means of pressing two pressing handles 36. When the dimensions of the third embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f are sufficiently small, the compression can be done with one hand. Likewise, the third embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f can also include a hanging device 37, to which one can, for example, tie a string with a balloon on its end.

The second bow 12 has two ends, a first end of a second bow 12 a, and a second end of a second bow 12 b, while each end is disposed directly to the end of each of the two first bow wings lib or to one of the two pressing handles 36, while both options are acceptable and efficient.

The state shown in the present illustration is a free state, namely, there is no influence of any external forces on the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f (third embodiment), and its shape is determined by the equilibrium of the internal elastic forces.

The first bow 11, which is a spring, as noted, is bent in the free state bow arc bending angle ‘C’, the value of which is smaller than 90 degrees, while the second bow 12, which is also a spring, as noted, is bent at second bow bending angle ‘D’. It has been determined that for the purpose of effective functioning of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f (third embodiment), the angle ‘D’ must be larger than a value suitable for a given model of utility corner shelf bracket 100 f according to its structure and its composing materials. A typical value is bending of 40 degrees.

The present illustration shows that strengthening ribs 30 can have a suitable shape and dimensions to serve as buffers preventing excessive compression of the sixth embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f. The third embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f can be composed of a single part and of a single material, without any moving parts, namely without any hinges or the like, and it can be manufactured in an injection process, without any connection means such as adhesives, welding, screws, etc. between its various parts.

However, there is an advantage that the nails 18 be composed of a rigid material, for example a metal, and be connected to an assembly that is cast at a later stage. In this configuration as well, the third embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f has no connection means such as adhesives, welding, screws, etc. between its various parts.

Good materials for the production of a third embodiment of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f can be selected from the group of polymers.

Likewise the present illustration shows protective wing holes 60 a enabling the passage of nails 18 through a protective wing 60.

FIG. 8 i is an isometric schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of a utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nail shields 70 in a protective state according to the present invention.

The two nail shields 70 prevent undesired human contact with the nails 18. This is a state suitable for storage of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f prior to use.

FIG. 8 j is an isometric schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nail shields 70, in a nails exposed state according to the present invention.

The utility corner shelf bracket 100 f is also in this state when it is connected to a corner wall 101 (not shown in the present drawing). In this state, the nail shields 70 aren't disrupting the exposure of nails 18.

FIG. 8 k is an isometric schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nail shields 70, in an immediately after molding state according to the present invention. This state is achieved immediately after casting in the production process of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f and prior to its protective state.

Each one of the two nail shields 70 has a shield front wall 71 which is connected to two shield side walls 72. On each shield side wall 72 there is a side wall slot 72 a.

Each shield front wall 71 is connected to a first bow wing 11 b by means of a shield arm 73 one end of which is connected to a first integral pivot 73 a and the other end of which is connected to a second integral pivot 73 b.

FIG. 8 l is a top view schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nails shields 70, in an immediately after molding state according to the present invention. The illustration marks detail C in a circle, which is magnified in the circle on the lower side of the illustration. The present illustration shows no nails 18, which can be assembled, according to the present invention, at a later stage of production.

In order to shift the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f from the immediately after molding state to a protective state, a moment must be activated to cause angular movement in the direction shown by arrow α, the center of which is second integral pivot 73 b of the nails shield 70 relative to the shield arm 73. Furthermore, a moment must be activated to cause angular movement in the direction shown by arrow β, the center of which is the first integral pivot 73 a of the shield arm 73 relative to the first bow wing 11. Likewise, the elastic shield side wall 72 should be tilted in a direction perpendicular to the illustration sheet, and released at a position ensuring that a first bow first pin 11 e is inserted into the side wall slot 72 a. The same should be done for the concealed shield side wall 72 not shown in the present illustration.

Once the first bow first pins 11 e are within the side wall slots 72 a, they prevent the nail shields 70 from returning to the immediately after molding state that would occur due to the elastic qualities of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f.

The first bow second pin 11 f is located such that in certain states, it will prevent movement of the nail shield 70 when it meets with the shield stair 74.

As used herein in the specification and claims sections, the term ‘integral pivot’ refers to a device that enables performance of repeated angular movements with at least two components connected to it, with which it composes a single integrated part, which can be made of a uniform material.

FIG. 8 m is a top view schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nails shields 70, in a protective state according to the present invention. The first bow first pins 11 e, when engaged with the side wall slots 72 a, prevent the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f from returning to the immediately after molding state. The shape of the side wall slot 72 a is not limited to that of an arc as shown in the present illustration, and it can be shaped as any other orifice, as long as it fills its purpose as described so far.

When a force F₆ is applied on the nails shield 70 as shown in the present illustration, for example by a finger, the nails shield 70 moves toward the first bow wing 11 b.

FIG. 8 n is a top view schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nail shields 70, in a safe state according to the present invention.

The continued activation of the force F₆ causes further movement of the nails shield 70 until it stops as a result of contact of the shield stair 74 with the first bow second pin 11 f. In this state, if the force F₆ is generated by the pressure of a finger, the finger will not be injured seeing as the nails 18 are not exposed but rather contained within the nails shield 70.

FIG. 8 o is a top view schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nails shields 70, in a press against corner walls 101 state, according to the present invention.

Prior to installation of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f on corner walls 101, the user presses the pressing handles 36 so that they draw close to each other, and disposes the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f as close as possible to the designated place of installation, so that both the nail shields 70 are in contact with the corner walls 101.

In the next stage, the user releases the force from the pressing handles 36, and thanks to the elasticity of the first bow wing 11 b and of the second bow 12, pressure forces of the corner walls 101 are generated upon the nails shields 70, causing them to move relative to the remaining components of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, and unlike the movement described in the previous illustration and accompanying description, the movement of each one of the nail shields 70 in the state shown in the present illustration does result in the exposure of the nails 18, subsequently enabling contact of the nails 18 with the corner walls 101 and even penetration.

FIG. 8 p is a top view schematic illustration of an illustrative, exemplary third embodiment, fourth variant, of the utility corner shelf bracket 100 f, having two nails shields 70, in an installed on a corner walls 101 state according to the present invention.

In this state, the shield front walls 71 are attached to the corner walls 101 and the nails 18 penetrate them.
